There are days when I swear there truly aren’t 24 hours in it. Like I think there are those days when you maybe get 18 hours and somehow those other 6 hours magically disappeared. Like maybe Mother Earth needed to borrow some time and took mine. They say the older you get the easier it gets. Thing is I’m not sure I believe that’s entirely true. I think the older I get it *may* get easier but that’s only because at our age we’ve become the expert at doing it; whatever it is. Like remember when you were a little kid and you first learned to tie your tennis shoes? It took FOREVER to get it right and I’m sure you sat there, tongue sticking out of the corner of your mouth and your eyes intently staring at your little fingers all the while your parents sat there reciting the bunny rhyme to help you tie them. However eventually over time and practice you became and expert at it and now I’m pretty sure you don’t even give it a second thought when you do tie them, huh?

Thus since you aced the whole shoelace tying thing you were able to add another task to your day. Eventually you aced that too and you added another task. Eventually you are at the age you are now and you have a bajillion tasks to do and while you may be an expert at them all, they still take up time. For me I’m at that point. I need more time in my days. Like you know how you can buy more cell phone minutes when you run out? Well I want to buy more hours in my day. Anyone know who I can speak with about this?

So this recipe happened on one of those days when I just didn’t have enough hours in the day but I knew at some point I’d have to eat. See Mr. Fantabulous was off being a rock god (aka band practice) and I had 797 bajillion things to get done while he was gone AND somehow include some much needed ‘me’ time in there. Since I knew I’d be short on time I broke out my trusty crock pot and grabbed some stuff out of the fridge, whipped up a quick sauce, plopped it all in the slow cooker, turned that sucker on and went about my day.Could you use more hours in your day?
